The “I Have a Dream” speech by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. deeply moved me with its powerful vision of equality and justice. The moment that stood out the most was when he spoke of his dream that his children would be judged by the content of their character, not the color of their skin. His words ignited a sense of hope and urgency for a world where freedom and equality are real for all. The speech filled me with a mix of inspiration and sadness, knowing that the struggle for civil rights is ongoing. Dr. King’s message of unity and love remains a call to action that still resonates today.  

Over spring break, I went back to New Orleans to visit family and friends. It was great reconnecting with everyone and spending quality time together. We explored the city, enjoyed some of our favorite local spots, and reminisced about old memories. I also took the chance to relax and recharge with loved ones. Overall, it was a perfect way to unwind and appreciate my hometown.  

 I'm drawn to the vibrant energy of city life. I envision myself thriving in a bustling urban environment, surrounded by diverse cultures and endless opportunities. The convenience of public transportation and walkability appeals to my desire for a sustainable lifestyle. I'm excited by the concentration of arts, entertainment, and dining experiences that cities offer. Ultimately, I crave the dynamic and ever-evolving atmosphere that only a city can provide.

 To minimize student loan debt, I would try to earn scholarships and grants by researching and applying to every eligible opportunity. I would also explore community college options for probably the first two years to reduce tuition costs before transferring to a four-year university. While in college, I'd seek part-time employment to cover living expenses and avoid unnecessary borrowing. I would carefully budget my finances, focusing on essential needs rather than the non important spending. in conclusion I would consider negotiating my salary upon graduation to accelerate debt repayment if loans become unavoidable

 a word that I can truly say resonates with me has to be nirvana which means a great condition of peace and happiness. Throughout life I try my best to avoid pressures or high stress and the best way that I learned to that is by keeping up a positive mind set. another way to avoid stress is to not focus on the past or things that you can't control as it will do nothing but set you further back. I always try my best to keep up a positive attitude by doing those things it has always helped me. In conclusion keeping a positive attitude will do nothing but put you in a good/positive place no matter what or who is in your way.

  One person who has achieved a similar dream is Ralph Lauren, the founder of one of the biggest fashion brands in the world. His journey teaches the importance of Perseverance and staying true to your vision, even when faced with setbacks. He started with a modest polo shirt design, but his dedication to quality and style helped him build an iconic brand. I can also learn the value of adapting to change and finding new ways to stay relevant in the competitive fashion industry. By following his example, I can keep pushing forward, refining my ideas, and making my dream of owning the biggest clothing brand a reality.
